Chevy T-Case

Post by ray barth »

Experts,

Is the transfer case for the 1.5 ton Chevy the same as the CCKW? Who handles parts (gears, shafts, gaskets etc) for this T Case?
Thanks for any advise.

The case has the same odd shape, but it about 1.5" less thick front to back. The CCKW is an underdrive xfer in hi range and the chev is 1 to 1. The hi-lo lever works backwards from one to the other.

They will bolt in however and people have swapped in a chev for a cckw to get more speed. Going the other way will slow a chev down. There are issues with the one lever working backwards and on driveshaft is too short then on the cckw.

Ray,
There is a post on the G503 in the 2 1/2ton and up forum, about a couple of nos chevy transfers being avail.the owner was looking for cckw transfers instead.....I do not remember where he was located however.
Given their weight the S&H will not be cheap :shock:

I will try to locate and post the link. http://web.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=182549

Hope this helps
